what kind of power should i expect ?

ok here is the setup...just wondering if anyone ever had something similiar with their ls/vtec build and wondering what kind of power they put down... my friend has a b18c5 in his 94 cx hatch and has bolt-ons. my goal is just to rape the ever living shit out of him on the street (in my dc2) =) he thinks his car is the fastest thing around... but anyway, here is the list for my build...

Damn all that work and parts is getting really expensive. $1500 for a header..wow! For double that he could have a reliable turbo setup, and be almost guaranteed to "just rape the living shit out of him on the street.."

no, it was $1500 for a header and the head work. and yes, a little more and you could have a turbo and win easily.

we've said it before and we'll say it again. "all motor is the expensive way to go slow"

it will be tuned on crome. anyone have any idea what kind of whp i should make? my goal is 210-220 whp hopefully.

I think with this setup you can reach 200whp now how much after 200whp I don't know it will depend on your tuner and do you have any cam gears on this setup? You don't need headwork to make 200whp but in the same token it will help your setup make more than 200whp and get closer to 210-220whp.

And I'm living proof of this . But I have my reasons, though some times I do have my regrets about not getting the boosted jdm gsr I could've got instead of the type r. But when i remember the reason I did the itr swap it brings a smile to my face. 1. my 1st all motor project, 2, the coveted type r with under 30,000 miles, (at time of purchase). and 3. my favorite quote.

itr swap = $5500
parts to build engine and labor cost = $4000+
look on the guy's face with the boosted setup when I beat him and say after, it's all motor = Priceless
